I can't answer those questions any better than you, :)

Really, I was just getting confirmation that anyone cared before
looking at it further. If it's the case that the property really isn't
needed, then ignoring the exception is fine. Not making the call in
the first place would be better, but maybe there's a use case for it.
Not my place to say, but I'll give it a shot and see where we get.
FWIW, this isn't an issue with the server.policy file as far as I can
tell. I think this code is operating before the policy system has been
started.
